Brief Thread compiling disparate links I have come across regarding recent examples of Special Forces, US intelligence, national security & banks collaborating with/facilitating the drug trade. Most of these come from this excellent compilation of info rhizzone.net/forum/topic/14…
finance.yahoo.com/news/confirmed… "...between the years 2000 and 2012, the U.S. government had an arrangement with Mexico's Sinaloa drug cartel that allowed the organization to smuggle billions of dollars of drugs while Sinaloa provided information on rival cartels"
High level Cartel member indicats "a 'simulated war' in which the Mexican & US governments are willing to show favor to a dominant narcotrafficking organization in order to minimize the violence and business disruption in the major drug plazas, or markets" narconews.com/Issue67/articl…
narconews.com/Issue40/articl… DoJ attorney claims DEA "are on drug traffickers’ payrolls, complicit in the murders of informants who knew too much...directly involved in helping Colombia’s infamous rightwing paramilitary death squads to launder drug money."

2023: "At least 13 soldiers assigned to U.S. Army Special Operations Command at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, are under investigation for drug trafficking" military.com/daily-news/202…
2018: "a decorated U.S. Army Special Forces soldier was arrested and charged in relation to an attempt to smuggle 90 pounds of cocaine from Colombia to Florida, but he may just be one player in a multimillion-dollar operation" taskandpurpose.com/news/special-f…

Reported in 2021: U.S. Special Forces Train Drug Cartel Enforcers Linked to Rape, Torture and Decapitation of Victims covertactionmagazine.com/2021/04/29/lat…
Keep in mind that US Special Forces have expanded exponentially all around the globe for the purposes of training "local forces" ever since 9/11j theintercept.com/2015/09/09/u-s…
Also keep in mind that Los Zetas, noted by many as Mexico's "most brutal Cartel" was started by members of Mexico's own Special Forces businessinsider.com/how-34-command…

In 2014, protests against the murder of Michael Brown by Darren Wilson were organized in Ferguson, Missouri with subsequent demonstrations catalyzing the Black Lives Matter movement. By 2020, at least 7 organizers of BLM's first generation had died under strange circumstances
In 2016, Darren Seals, one of the earliest participants in the Ferguson protests, was found shout to death inside a car that had been set on fire. Prior to this, Seals said that police had stopped him & warned him to "pick his enemies better" blurredbylines.com/blog/ferguson-…Image
Image
Two years earlier, DeAndre Joshua, another original Ferguson activist, was also found shot dead in a burnt car. Ferguson police never even identified a suspect. At least one witness says he overheard four unknown men discuss killing someone for "looting" before Joshua's death Image

2 recent articles about Opus Dei have been brought to my attention. The first has to do with the criminal investigation into the Argentinian branch on charges of human trafficking, mostly of young women & teenage girls. These women were [allegedly] slaves to the Catholic cult Image
Image
Image
The 2nd article is even more recent & details the Vatican-sanctioned cult's relationship to Franco's government in Falangist Spain. Opus Dei acquired so much power under Franco that even the dictator's fellow Falangists became worried. One committed suicide after denouncing them Image
Image
Image
Image
Interesting part in the 2nd article where Del Portillo of Opus Dei points out that the organization is working alongside "non-Catholics" in their project. Reminds me of their current approach to other Christian Right groups, which is to essentially push a nondenom theocracy Image

For some reason there are Leftists who would argue against this but you can not convince me that the hegemonic ideological position in the NATO bloc today is not "Judeo-Christianity is 'natural', Islam is 'unnatural', the former is apolitical, the latter is Communism."
The New Atheists themselves often argued the former position by insisting, as Sam Harris often did, that "Judeo-Christian values" produce the most positive social outcomes so even if society is fully secularized those values should be retained while Islam should be combatted
Jordan Peterson, who is now simply an unironic conservative Christian, often argued this same thing even as he praised Nietzsche (a hilarious paradox for anyone who has actually read Nietzsche) as have most of the "Alt Right" for a decade. Liberals argue it a bit more covertly

"To deal in dollars, financial institutions must often borrow, however temporarily, from US counterparts and comply with the rules of the US government. That makes the Treasury Department...the gatekeeper to the world’s banking operations." archive.is/ceuOF#selectio…
Image
After 9/11 "Congress enacted legislation to compel financial institutions to maintain records of consumer transactions & hand them over to law enforcement" & "the rise of digital banking gave new insights into the worldwide flow of money." US Treasury Dept. benefits immensely Image
"In 2011, at a holiday party in the Hotel Harrington in downtown Washington, Adam Szubin, then director of OFAC, sang a song titled 'Every Little Thing We Do Is Sanctions' to the tune of 'Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic'" Szubin is a lawyer at Sullivan & Cromwell btw

Casey Wasserman is married to Laura Ziffren. That means that the grandson of Lew Wasserman & the granddaughter of Paul Ziffren, another Hollywood mogul from the National Crime Syndicate, are spouses. Both worked alongside Sidney Korshak as part of "the Three Redwoods"

Image
Image
As Gus Russo writes in Supermob, Paul Ziffren became a "kingmaker" for California Democrats. "Ziffren's early strength came from his ability to raise money for Democratic candidates." From 1953 until his death, Ziffren "reinvented" California's statewide Democratic Party. Image
"Ziffren's legacy is perhaps most visible in the accomplishments of his son" a Hollywood attorney nick-named "the Pope of Hollywood." This is Laura Ziffren's father, Kenneth Ziffren, whose law firm represented, among many other high profile names, Harvey Weinstein & his brother Image

Lew Wasserman's grandson, Casey, flew on the Lolita Express & was in Epstein's black book. He gives $10,000s (at least) to the Democrats every year & has a personal friendship with Bill Clinton. Back in July of this year, Clinton & Nancy Pelosi attended Casey Wasserman's birthday
Image
Would it surprise you to learn that the name of the guy who planned this birthday party was "Ben Bourgeois" Image
It seems that Bill Clinton can't get enough of hanging out with capitalists & gangsters who use their private jets to rape young women & underage girls. I wonder why! At least he isn't a corrupt criminal oligarch like those Russians
